Escape Rooms in Cincinnati

Runaway Train

You've booked the trip of a lifetime: a cross-continental journey on The Breakout Express. As the train winds through beautiful countryside, news spreads of an uproar in the locomotive car. Radicals have taken control of the conductor’s cabin, planted explosives, and the train is racing towards a non-stop destination in the heart of the city: Central Station. Gain entry to the conductor's cabin, stop the train, and free the passengers before time runs out. Can you engineer a last-minute escape?

"Our family had so much fun doing the Runaway Train breakout game this past weekend. Our assistant was positive, encouraging, and did a great job of allowing us to do our own problem-solving. If you want a great family activity.....this is the answer!"

Jean S. from Cincinnati, OH

"So much fun! You can be your own CSI team and have great laughs while solving the mystery!"

Charles S. from Cincinnati, OH

"Very fun and different. My friends and I played a game tonight but didn’t breakout. We were a party of 8 which I think is a large number of individuals to be in a single game. We would definitely give this another try perhaps take two separate rooms and compete to see who breaks out faster."

A recent string of kidnappings has awakened old fears in the people of Breakout City. You've tracked the Kidnapper to a run-down motel on the outskirts of town. Unfortunately, he was expecting you, and now you're caught in his twisted web of games. This investigation-gone-wrong will send your mind spinning as you try to save his next victims... Or become one yourself.

"First timer here, and was unsure what to expect. We were successful, with a few minutes to spare. A great way to spend some family time!"

Stephen M. from Cincinnati, OH

"We have had lots of fun and love to go to the new escape room openings! Great fun!"

Christopher H. from Cincinnati, OH

"Great experience. Had a great time, the Do Not Disturb escape room really makes you work those brain cells! Would definitely recommend this game and would do it again!"

Taz D. from Cincinnati, OH

"Game masters were helpful when needed which made the experience better. It was so fun that we ended up going back the next day to play a different room! We plan to make this happen at least once a month."

Nicole B. from Mason, OH

"Went to play an escape room for my sister's bachelorette party and had an amazing time. Highly recommend!"

This spine-chilling holiday adventure starts in the ruins of an old mansion – abandoned decades ago by a reclusive and eccentric family. Since then, rumors have spread about a presence looming over the old house. Work as a team to race the clock and uncover the mansion's secrets in this all-ages mystery adventure.

"I would HIGHLY recommend Breakout! We had such a wonderful time and the ladies working were so amazingly nice. I cannot wait to come back!"

Nathan B. from Fort Thomas, OH

"So creative, high-quality establishment, challenging and impressive, and friendly staff. I've been in 8 other escape rooms in different states, and this was the nicest by far."

David K. from Mason, OH

"When our group went here, we didn't know what to expect. Even though we didn't figure out the mystery, it was so much fun learning to work together. It was also great that the staff was present to help us when we'd get stuck. I look forward to going back again!"

Daniel J. from Batavia, OH

"The service here is great, welcoming staff who communicates clearly, positively, and effectively with patrons. the rooms are all pretty different (I've done 3) but all fun and challenging in their own ways. Even when I don't breakout, I have a good time!"

Hannah T. from Middletown, OH

"Awesome escape room puzzles, well designed to be challenging without being frustrating. The staff is friendly and helpful, I have had a wonderful time every time I've done one of these rooms."

The kidnapping begins with you and your fellow captives waking up handcuffed and blindfolded in a strange room. With nothing but collective brainpower, hidden clues and 60 minutes on your side, you have to free yourselves before the kidnapper returns. A heart-pumping thriller from start to finish, you can expect a rush of non-stop fun.

"Awesome time. We did the Kidnapping escape room and it was a blast. Well done and very challenging but not impossible. We had a group of four kids (ages 10-14) and four adults; everyone was able to be engaged. Excellent staff - friendly, helpful and service oriented."

James M. from Florence, KY

Dominic D. from Mason, OH

"This was the most exciting and friendly kidnapping escape room experience that I ever want to have! I went for a friends birthday and she along with the rest of the group really enjoyed herself/each other! I would definitely go back!"
